Sophistication and purity in a double daffodil with a distinct whorl of petals and a loose double cup. More cool charm from Grant Mitsch. Alabaster is pure white and an ADS intermediate. Late Bloomer.

But Little Alfred sports all of the trumpet flanged and notched cupped bling that you want, but with a “seen not heard” modesty that you like. Lovely color, form and detail. Increases.
